Im using Rexy mod... and i have some questions...

Ive edited id3 tags so it will display album... but for some reason, on some albums it dosent group albums... any help?

From the screenshot you posted later on, I can assume that your files aren't named in accordance with their track number. You see, when you drag some files into foobar, it'll sort them by file name alpha so if the track number value isn't in the beginning of the file name it will be misarranged. After all, foobar renders rows seperately for every single song so what Azarel is doing is just using this nasty little hack of just using an if to check if the song is the first or second or whatever song in the album (simply using the tracknumber tag) and simply displays some tag from that specific song in that specific row so it is in no way actively grouping, sorting, or uniforming albums. What I do (after I have all the tags to be accurate and uniform, of course) is use the embedded Masstagger's file rename function and use "$num(%tracknumber%,2) - %title%" as my renaming pattern, but if you have all your files in the same folder and not arranged into folders and sub folders by artist and album, you might wanna throw in %artist% and %album% somewhere before the track number. Either that or you can use sort playlist (or sort selection). Personally, I use "%artist%%date%%album%$num(%tracknumber%,2)" as my sorting scheme. Also, from your screenshot, I can see that you are using the wrong font as the arrows and the RG warnings aren't showing up correctly. Talking of ReplyGain, I suggest you RG your files as it seems you didn't already. I, too, thought little of RG at the beginning, but as I started trying it out I saw the great power and potential it possesses.

Erm... could you PM me your msn/aim or anything so we can talk deeply about it? :p, seems you know a lot and you should share with me.... lol! :p, plz?

Thanks

You need to be using a different GUI plugin, ui_columns. try looking at http://foobar.nub4life.net/

After you switch, you can use any of the config themes from that site or here by going into the plugin options and using the import option. Hope this helps ..

hey fellows.

first thing, I have to apologize because of my poor english.

maybe the answer is allready here, so I did not understand it.

I installed foobar 0.8.2 and columns 0.1.

But when i'm trying to import any .fcs file, he just do nothing, well it seems to, without azrael, who gives me an error message : "unknown element found in file, skipping"

So please help me to customize this great audio player.

Another question : without quicktag, it exist another plugin to make a rating of our songs?

Make a rating?, you mean, group em with azrael? if so, select the files, right click, masstagger>add>add autotrack number, then select all, propietries, and fix the tags to fit it, if thats not what you needed... umm... what was it? =), and dont worry about youre english, whats your main leng?

    • I am actually looking forward to this..... I think Dark Ages was way more fun than the tedious expansions for Doom 2 (nu-doom).
    • Pretty sure you will be happy with the result, good luck and take it slow!
    • Mixed thoughts. I do think MS realized it need's to re-focus on it's core while trying to get people to ultimate pay for AI. My windows machines is my gaming tower. That being said a windows machine I used as a server was just recently converted to no GUI Linux server (and it runs so much better for it's purpse), and general purpose laptop (non-gaming) that could run Windows 11 is using Linux. My work device is a MacBook Pro, and I have a raspberry PI acting as my DNS server, using linux. I honestly have more non-windows devices then devices. I don't consider myself typical user however.  
    • Here is how to watch Apple's WWDC 2026 conference where iOS 27 is expected by Taras Buria It is Monday, June 8, 2026, which means today is the day Apple kicks off its annual Worldwide Developer Conference, WWDC 2026. As usual, today's keynote will be full of consumer and developer-focused announcements, including new versions of Apple's operating systems, developer tools, and more. Apple streams its developer conferences, allowing everyone to tune in and watch the announcements live. Today is no exception, so here is how you can watch it. Apple WWDC 2026 will be available to watch on Apple's official website here. Also, you can stream it on YouTube and the Apple TV app on your Apple device. The stream kicks off at 10 AM PDT / 1 PM EDT / 6 PM GMT+1. Apple's annual developer conference usually focuses on new software experiences, so do not expect major hardware announcements. What is expected is the "27" series of Apple's operating systems, including iOS, iPadOS, watchOS, tvOS, visionOS, and macOS. Apple is unlikely to introduce major UI changes, but you can expect subtle tweaks to the Liquid Glass design language, particularly on Mac. One of the biggest changes Apple plans to announce today is a reworked, AI-powered Siri. The assistant will be available as a standalone app with a chatbot-like experience and Google's AI models under the hood. If you want to learn more about what is expected today at WWDC 2026, check out our dedicated article here. However, if you prefer a spoiler-free stream, tune in at 10 AM PDT / 1 PM EDT on Apple's official website, its YouTube channel, or the Apple TV app.
    • For we consumer readers, it would be helpful if you clearly stated in the headline if the article is about consumer or enterprise. Then readers will know if the article applies to them or not. 2 cents.
